==== 4. Practical takeaways for WFH & IT teams ====

For employees / WFH folks in MI or WI:
* You don’t need to change your work VPN setup today.
* The Michigan bill, if revived and passed without carve‑outs, is the one that could truly break WFH inside the state.
* The Wisconsin bill is mostly about porn sites + VPNs, not day‑to‑day work connectivity.

For corporate / IT / security teams:
* Keep an eye on HB 4938 in Michigan and AB 105 / SB 130 in Wisconsin: - If you have offices or a large workforce in those states, your legal/compliance team will probably want to track amendments and court challenges.
* Consider: - Having non‑VPN fallback options (e.g., app‑level HTTPS access) just in case something weird happens at the ISP level. - Making sure internal acceptable‑use policies already forbid employees from using corporate VPN egress to access adult content – that can help distance corporate traffic from the content these bills are targeting.
* This is general information, not legal advice. For decisions that affect your company’s risk posture, talk to counsel or external experts who follow state telecom / First Amendment litigation.

If you tell me whether you’re asking as an individual remote worker or as someone responsible for corporate IT/policy, I can sketch a more specific “what to do if X passes” contingency plan for you.
